Moving West.

Huntingdon Republican: Last
Monday a woman with six children
passed through town on foot. The
oldest child, a boy about 10 or II
years old, was driving very small
yoke of oxen attached to a small COW
cred wagon. The children as well as
the mother were all harefooted and
all bareheaded except the boy driving
the team and the baby, who was
about 2 years old. They had come
seven miles west of Knoxville and
were going to Milan. The woman
said she had lost her husband and one
child while on the way. They were
not begging, as they did not stop in
town to ask for money or anything to
eat The modesty which the woman
manifested was enough TO touch the
heart of any one who had any humans
ity in him.

TIE SCHOOL QUESTION.

In recent decision of the Supreme
CourU of Tennessee it was held that
district directors were not amenable
for the manner in which they distrib-
uted the school fund. According to
the decision they can appropriate the
money in their districts as they please,
and the people have no redress in our
courts. Surely the people will not
long tolerate such II law which creates
administrators who are irresponsible
for their acts. The proof in the case
is clear that in the 18th district of
Madison county the people have not
received their part Of the public funds
for educational purposes. An iDjunc
ton was prayed for and granted by
chancellor to restrain the directors
from paying out any more OF the pub
lie money until complainants received
their prorala share Of it. An appeal
was taken to the supreme court at
jackson, where the decision OF the
chancellor was reversed, and the suit
thrown out of court. am not "le,
gal limb" of the law, but will hazard
an affirmation that both decisions are
correct. The chancellor's decision was
based Oh the principles of justice, and
the supreme courts on the law. The
question fsy the people to decide is
whether they will long submit to the
law as it now is,o have law enacted
10 accord with the chancellor's decis-
lou, making all equal in the distribu.
ton of common fund. There is
something little remarkable in re-
gard to our legislature upon the school
question. Gov. Bate, in one of his
messages to the legislature, called the
attention of that body to the necessity
of amending eur present law, or the
enacting of new one. The lower
house responded to his call and passed
law to divide the counties into school
districts, allowing but two schools to
a district, cue white and the other COL
ored. For some cause The senate
failed to act upon it. The lower
house of our last Legislature passed a
similar law, and the senate again re-
fused to act. Is there any reason why
our grave senators persistently refuse
to give the people good school law
that will give justice to all' The
reason why our senators have mol
given us a better school law may be
they live in favored localities and are
enjoying the benefits of the discre'
tionary power conferred upon direc'
tors by our present law. The discre'
tionery power placed in the hands O
directors has been abused in many To-
calities, and will be as long as the
present law exists. Some men act

Others act justly only from restraint

The Nevada Way.

like to see the gay and brilliant New
York blood show off before our western
unsophisticated citizens. At one of the
hotels the other day two very loud and
pronounced gentlemen arrived and signed
their names with flourish ''from New
York" They evidently knew what a
little one horse town they had come to,
and they began at once to paralyze the
people around with style. They aired
themselves about the hotel. They spoke
in loud voices and commented upon their
surroundings with asinine freedom. They
were apparently lavish with their money.
To show how they do those things in New
York they got hold of a couple of darby
musicians, took possession of room near
the bar, and had them play for them while
they played the king of Bavaria business
where the patrons of the hotel could hear
and see. The patrons of the hotel had a
circus of time watching them. When
tho concert was over they came out, and
one of them turning waved the darby
back, took coin, and threw it.
"Catch thatl" said he; ''that is how we
do it in New York." with the air of q
lord. A gentleman from New York had
been among the amused spectators. He
called the darby up.
"Say, how much did he give your he
asked.
1.-TWO bits" said the darby, showing
the coin.
The New York swells were still show
ing off when the voice of the Nevada man
attracted their attention.
''Stand over there" he said to the
darby. The darby did as he was told.
The Nevada man pulled out So piece
and threw it at him.

The POPULATION OF CHINA.
A Matter OF Much Doubt-Now 450, 000,-
900 OF People In China.


A Matter OF Much Doubt-Now 45o, o00,-
900 OF People In China.
The population of China has been a
matter of much discussion and doubt
among foreigners. 1t has been claimed
that the figures of the Chinese census are
much too high. There is, however, no
known reason why the officials of that
country should exaggerate their popula-
ton. There is no disputing the fact that
the means existing there for arriving at
an accurate census are most ample.
Every house must have a list of its in
mates hung at its door, and a violation of
this is visited with punishment. The
imperial and local taxes are based in part
upon the numbers of the people. The
most difficult task imposed upon the pro-
vincial rulers is the furnishing the amounts
OF money demanded by the imperial gov
eminent, and any excessive census return
would only increase that difficulty. 1T
Is only fair presumption that if the CEN
sus returns are incorrect that they are
too small rather than too large.
The census of 1875 gave the population
of the empire at 435, 900, 900. Since that
time Tonquin has been lost, with several
million people, and Kashgaria has been
reconquered. Among no people with
any degree of civilization is the birth rate
SO high as in China, and although the
death rate in the densely crowded dis
tricts is very great, there is every reason
to presume there are now $50, 900, 900
people in China.
These figures represent more than one
third of the population of the globe. It
is greater population than that of all
Europe, and three times the number of
people ON the western continent. Even
at these enormous figures the average
number of people to the square mile for
the whole e-eighty-five-is not so
high as in some parts Of the United
States.
In the great mountain ranges, on the
arid plains of Kashgaria and the snowy
regions of Mongolia and Manchuria tho
population is sparse, but in the eight CEN
trail provinces of China proper-in the
fertile, alluvial soils-the population is
denser and more crowded than in any
other region of equal extent on earth.
The villages there are almost beyond
enumeration, and the numbers of walled
cities incredible to those who have not
seen them. In the two'Kiang provinces,
at the mouth of the Yangtz river, with
an area of 10000 square miles, the popu-
lation in 1875 was 72,0O0,0 900, and there
were 1875 walled cities.
The census of 1875 was taken when
the richest portions of these two provinces
had been devastated and depopulated by
the TAPPING rebellion. Since that time
there has been q great inpouring of peo-
pie from other regions of the empire, es-
pecially from those districts where the
famine of 1878 prevailed. The natural
increase of population has also been very
great, and it would be safe to say that
these 80, 900 square miles have now more
than 100000 people.-Cor. San Fran
cisco Chronicle.

Gems for Each Day of the Week.


All yellow gems and gold are cppropri-
ate to be worn on Sunday, to draw down
the propituous influences, or to avert the
antagonistic effects of the spirits on this
day through its ruler and name giver,
the sun. On Monday pearls and white
stones (but not diamonds) are to be
worn, because this is the day Of the
moon, or of tile second power in nature.
Tuesday, which is the day of Mars,
claims rubies, and all stones of fiery
lustcr. Wednesday is the day for tur-
quoises, sapphires and all precious stones
which seem to reflect the blue of the
vault of heaven, and that imply the
lucent azure of the supposed spiritual at
mosphere, wherein or under which the
Rosicrucian sylphs dwell-those ele-
mentary children who, according to the
cabalistic theogony, are always striving
for intercourse with the race of Adam,
seeking share of his particular privilege
of Immortality, which has been denied to
them. Thursday demands amethysts
and deep colored stones, sanguine tint,
because Thursday is the day of Thor
the runic impersonated male divine sacri-
fee. Friday, which is the day of Venus,
has its appropriate emeralds and reigns
over all the varieties of the imperial, and
yet strangely the sinister color, green.
Saturday, which is Saturn's day, the old
est of the gods, claims for its distinctive
talisman the most splendid of all gems,
or the queen of precious stones, the luster
darting diamond, which is produced
from the black of Sab, Sch, OF Saturn,
the origin of all visible things, or the
"Great Deep" OF 'Great Mother" in
one sense.-Lterary World.
